Tim O'Reilly: Travel Writing

In 1993, I co-founded Travelers' Tales with my brother James, a long-time travel writer. I thought that there were some interesting parallels between the technical book publishing I did and a gap in the travel book market. We created a unique, award-winning series of books that help people get the most out of their travels by learning from the stories of people who've been there. Over the course of the years, I've written a few of my own travel stories for Travelers' Tales anthologies.

Walking the Kerry Way. An account of a trip I took with another brother, Frank, back to some of my father's old haunts in Ireland. This is a very personal piece, and if you want to learn about some old O'Reilly family history and my relationship with
my father, here's the place to do it. This story appeared in Travelers'
Tales Ireland: True Stories
of Life on the Emerald Isle.
